Re: Jimmy Kimmel suspended indefinitely
Freedom of speech and freedom from consequences are two different things. I always found it annoying when liberals repeated this tired line. It's just as lame now that conservatives are suddenly parroting it too. Kimmel said nothing bad about Kirk. He actually posted a very sympathetic message to h...

POLL: Who's kicking the bucket first?
Between politics and Motley Crue's new residency, the news is pretty depressing these days, so let's get back to something happier here on Metal Sludge:
Predicting celebrity deaths.
And it doesn't get much bigger than this. Who do you got?

Re: Cranking some Faith No More this morning
It's common on this board to overlook it in favor of Angel Dust or stan for the early shit with the other singer, but The Real Thing is great. I don't revisit it as often as I should. An instant nostalgia fix for a brief moment in time we call 1990. And one of the few albums the metalheads and alte...

Re: Amazing albums with garbage tone
KISS - Crazy Nights Maybe not an amazing album in the traditional sense but an amazing album to KISS fans, tone sucked. I think the tone works for what that album was going for. The guitars just get overwhelmed by the keyboards at times. The new songs on ST&H are much worse. The guitar sounds t...

Not that it's a surprise, but his wife sounds unhinged - and it doesn't feel like it has as much to do with his assassination but rather her own system of beliefs.

Re: KISS @ Foundations Forum, Burbank, CA 1993-09-11
I remember KISS dorks going ga-ga for this in trading circles back in the day. I think it was their only real show of 1993.
Watching it back, they sound great. But the rapid cuts with shots that don't match the music is driving me crazy.

Re: Amazing albums with a garbage tune
It would be harsh to call it garbage, but "Just For You" on Bang Tango's Psycho Cafe is a boring song on an otherwise top-to-bottom great album.
Usually skipped that one.

Re: <band> would have been huge if <member> didn't die
I'm watching "Touch Too Much" on YouTube as I type this.
Decent song. Basic video. But Bon Scott packs a lot of charisma into it.
Obviously, AC/DC couldn't have released a more popular album than Back In Black ... but the idea of an alternative timeline with Bon alive is fascinating.

He sounds the same. His voice is the same. He even kinda looks the same.
But no matter how many "good" songs he puts out, it's never going to be the same. The '80s was a real lightning-in-a-bottle decade.

Kiss started as a gimmick and ended as a gimmick. Bon Jovi and Aerosmith did what they needed to do to extend being relevant. DLR went from the coolest guy in the world to a fruitcake dork.

I'm surprised that you're surprised. Off the top of my head, I'd assume SOAD is the bigger band. Just looked over their discographies. Album sales from back in the day are pretty similar. SOAD's biggest album sold more than Korn's biggest album. SOAD also seems to have a stronger legacy and their m...

Do bands have an "expiration date" of inspiration?
I've come to believe that most bands have a set "shelf life" of chemistry and inspiration. And once it's gone, it's never the same, no matter how hard they try. Success tends to ruin the natural flow of human behavior, forcing bands to stay together out of obligation. Motley Crue is the b...

Re: Does KISS have the worst catalog of any rock artist with that level of fame?
I knew someone would immediately bring up Motley Crue. The fans' self-hate for the genre is strong on this board. As for Kiss, they're somehow the world's most overrated and underrated band at the same time. They have semi-forgotten songs ("I Want You" in the '70s, "Who Wants To Be L...
